Trauma

It will see right through me
with its wall of eyes
Silent disapproval
of solitary time
Skin is only clothing
the mechanism’s hide
Teeth are not as tender as
smiles have you find
Oh but a moment
a cordoned
fleeting thought
Wreath the breathing trauma
with a silver-lined charade
Hands were made to damage
Tongues were made to tie
Skulls are just the ghosts inside
A mortal flesh design
It will eat my head off
with its yawning jaws
Cleansing and consuming
the body and its flaws
Oh but a moment
a cordoned fleeting thought
Wreathe the breathing trauma
with a silver-lined charade
Drink the supple torment
palpable in spires
that force the holes wide open
to trickle in white lies

Bait the Vultures

And it saturated slow
Sleeplessly above the room
And the world begins to crawl
All the walls become a hole
This involuntary design
Living in a place where thoughts
Are not safe to swallow whole
Ghosts are stirring in the floor
Laid myself out
Spread for vultures
To pierce unseeing eyes
Laid myself out
Spread for the sick humans
In dirty rooms
There are so many endings I’ve wanted to drown in
Be my body of water
There are so many endings I’ve wanted to drown in
Be my body of water

The Bottom of the Well

Who are you?
I find in you a covenant of closed doors
Who are you?
I find in you a garden of secret stories
Whelve into arms
Holding on to nothing
Crawl into arms
Live and breathe for nothing
Whelve into arms
Holding on to nothing
Crawl into arms
Live and breathe for nothing

I like the war
Inside of me
It feels like home
Reach into me
I won’t hide
I like my world...
I bite the wound
It grows on me
I want it to bleed
And I believe
There’s light in us all
But I want the world...
I love the world
Inside of me
I love the world
And I believe there’s light in us all
But I want the world

Ophelia

She breaks down
Wounded in my arms
Worn in two
Here the rue will come
Take me down to the river
Take me down to survive
Water too drowns lovers
But it’s keeping her alive
Sweets to sweet
Colder in her arms
Weep to the willows
Here the is swallowed
Take me down to the river
Take me down to survive
Water too drowns lovers
But it’s keeping
She breaks down
Wounded in my arms
Worn in two
Here the rue will come
Take me down to the river
Take me down to survive
Water too drowns lovers
But it’s keeping her alive

Death Process

A free-fall from this height
I'm breathless
I exist in this liminal space
Is it meaningless?
Is it?
Is it?
Is it?
All I ever wanted to do was burn
And I was hungrier than a dying star
Tearing worlds apart
Worlds apart
All I ever wanted to do was burn
And I was hungrier than a dying star
Pulling worlds apart
Worlds apart
That poisoned well
A cold flood of old blood
Non zero-sum game
Beginnings to endings
Reach forth in one mind
One consciousness
This one mind destroys time
The genesis
I see more through one eye
It's limitless
This one eye observes life
It's endless
Endless
Endless
Endless
All I ever wanted to do was burn
And I was hungrier than a dying star
Tearing worlds apart
Worlds apart
All I ever wanted to do was burn
I was hungrier than a dying star
Pulling worlds apart
Worlds apart
That poisoned well
A cold flood of old blood
We're non-linear
We're more than
We're more than this
All I ever wanted to do was burn
And I was hungrier than a dying star
Still holding onto nothing
Holding on
All I ever wanted to do was burn
And I was hungrier than a dying star
But I am more than this
More than this
All I ever wanted to do was burn
And I was hungrier than a dying star
Pulling worlds apart
Worlds apart
All I ever wanted to do was burn
I was hungrier than a dying star
I am more than this
More than this
That poisoned well
A cold flood of old blood
Non-linear
We're more than
We're more than this

Castle of Glass
04:51
|
|||
|
A branch that you stole
in a yard that’s not yours
from a tree that you climbed
to lead you back home
This two-pronged fork
divining the world
it brings you to sand
where you build a forte
This castle of glass
it towers to sky
like the tree that you climbed
for the branch that you stole
The waves rolling in
they scare you to land
but there’s no one at sea
just you and your branch
With wood in your veins
and salt in your hair
you take off your dress
and walk to the edge
She shows you the void
at the top of the tower
It’s time to undo
it’s time to unbirth
She’ll sprinkle your bones
She’ll feed you to earth
In time you’ll return

Soma Plume Sydney, Australia
A delicate balance of crushingly brutal riffs, uncomfortably dissonant chords, thunderous drums and bass, painful and
harrowing screams, and glitched-out electronic noise juxtaposed with beautifully lush soundscapes, and vocals that are as hauntingly fragile as they are powerful and ethereal.
Soma Plume create on the unceded lands of the Gadigal and Garigal people.
